Plant photos are stock photos and often show plants in bud, flower or blushing with color (blushing may occur in some species (brachycauos, abdita, ionantha,capitata etc.) at bloom time. When not blushing, leaves are green). Plants we send may or may not be in bud or flower or blushing at the time you purchase, but will be excellent plants. Size of plants can be larger or smaller than plant in photo and plants can vary in shape and form and color. Plant sizes in item titles are relative only (we don`t measure each plant) and plants we send may be larger or smaller at different times of the year. All items are subject to previous sale. In the rare event that we can not provide the item you ordered, we will substitute a plant of equal or greater value. It you do not want to allow substitututions please inform us in your order or via email.

INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS should check their nation`s import requirements with their Agricultural or Customsofficials. See

Air plants are the common name for Tillandsias , a type of Bromeliad that grows on rocks, trees shrubs etc without soil ...they receive all of their water and nutrients from the air through specialized leaves. Unlike other plants, the roots of tillandsias are not used for absorbing water and nutrients but serve only as anchors to attach to trees or rocks. Most belong the the genus Tillandsia.....there are over 650 known species plus many hybrids. Tillandsias grow in parts of the southern United States, Mexico, Central America and South America on trees as epiphyes, and on rocks (saxicolously). Tillandsias make unique houseplants and can be used in vivariums, terrariums. Tillandsias can also be grown outside in certain locations and situations.

NOTE: OUT OF STOCK MEANS THE STOCK IS DEPLETED AND WE ARE GROWING MORE. Plants that are declared out of stock are unavailable because they have to be grown to sufficient size and quantity to allow sales. They have been sold faster than they could be grown. Unlike other commodities that are created in a few minutes at a factory, tillandsia plants must be "grown" which takes much time.
